i wanna pierce my tongue, it doesn’t hurt it feels fine!

like, of course i loved this song as a teenager – it talked about piercing your tongue! at the time, tattoos and piercings for us youths were out of reach for the most part and weren’t mainstream just yet. this song is also catchy as hell, but i never went past the one hit wonder that it was. it was just always on the radio or mtv, so i didn’t buy the album. 24 years later, i checked out the album it spawned from, and it’s so good. i love me indie rock, and this is no exception. indie/garage alt rock from the 90s? even better.
the entire album sorta reminds me of listening to the blue album until the slower songs at the end. i could have done with two less slower songs… not that they’re bad, i just like the faster rock stuff. also: hot damn, “wrecking ball” sounds like it was performed by cursive.
if you also love grungy 90s alt rock like me, check it out (if you haven’t already, since i’m VERY late to the party).
